| Summary: | Abstract: "This paper discusses some of the essential determinants of successful sensory-motor mechanisms in biological systems that are seriously under-represented in most Artificial Life models. These include specificity, non-centralised processes, and exploitation of the physical sensory and motor interface of the agent and environment. The ideas are illustrated in the interpretation of biological evidence, and the building of a robot model, for a hypothesised mechanism of cricket phonotaxis (the ability to track a conspecific auditory signal). The robot's behaviour confirms that the specificity of the task and effects of the environmental interface can be utilised to obtain a simple but effective location device." |
